Thank you for taking the effort to submit your test for the contest.
Unfortunately, this test will not be able to receive a prize:

Missing explanations. All explanations simply repeat the correct answer. E.g.:

Sorry for the mistake. Your quiz was disqualified wrongly.

The answers are not satisfying. Just giving a link to the thesaurus is no use. Several links don't work because of American English vs. British English writing, so the links are essentially dead. Hastily and rapidly are both synonyms of fast. Come off is not mentioned as a synonym for cook in the article linked. Explanation needed. Cut is not the synonym of analyse. Examine is, but that's marked as wrong. Terrific is NOT a synonym of terrible, it's the antonym. Take is not mentioned as the synonym of afford in the article, explanation needed. How is golden not a synonym of golden but propitious is? Propitious means favourable or indicating a good chance of success. That's not exactly golden.

Well I have to add that you cannot copy intellectual property as dictionary entries, so I thought better link to thesaurus where you can read for yourself the definitions.

> Several links don't work because of American English vs. British English writing, so the links are essentially dead
I may have made some mistakes in the links the amount of work was massive, so my bad

> Cut is not the synonym of analyse.
You can find more for analyze and cut in https://www.merriam-webster.com/thesaurus/cut in the definition for "to identify and examine the basic elements or parts of (something) especially for discovering interrelationships"

> How is golden not a synonym of golden but propitious is? Propitious
means favourable or indicating a good chance of success. That's not
exactly golden.
You can find more about golden in https://www.merriam-webster.com/thesaurus/golden in the first entry for "having qualities which inspire hope"
